Gildan Hammer has always treated me well. Xl after a wash is the perfect fit (for me)

I’m due a top up on Tee’s. Just ordered a single one of these as a trial.
I spend way too much time researching plane Ts. I’ve tried most of the recommended ones on here. Currently I have Russel Athletic super heavyweight for chilling round the house, and Norse Project Niels Ts for date nights, etc. just trying to crack something that’s in between. Thanks for the suggestions though. Carhartt is a good shout. I’ve got a Carhartt Chase plane T from about 10 years ago that’s still going strong.
Levi’s skate plain tees when on sale, probably mid weight which is nice.
Hang on this is trouser thread

I remember a suburban bliss tee I had was perfect fit for me, so I spoke to Toby who said he got them made in India, unfortunately they weren’t an off the peg thing. So carefully took measurements of it and did exactly nothing with them.
Great story.
Until I got onto the kirklands.

I’m genuinely thinking of buying a second hand sewing machine and learning to hem, because what I want in a T-shirt clearly doesn’t exist.
I want a boxy fit, in a heavier weight, 100% cotton (preferably organic) - similar to the Uniqlo Airism T-shirt in shape but with an inch off the sleeves and a length that ends just below my hip.
Have you tried anything by Merz B Shwanen? They’re meant to be perfect but I could only afford like 1 a year.
I don’t get that boxy fit trend at all. Looks like fucking crop tops for men to me. I suppose thinking or at least saying this makes me a boomer. Oh well.
I’ve note heard of them, look good but that’s a lot more than I’m looking to pay. For a while there was a company called Forge, I think they were out of Sheffield, and they’d make their own fabric. They did a good fitting T in 300-350 gsm. I still have a couple but I think they went out of business. Part of the trick is finding a company that is just going to continue to make the same fit T consistently. I’m looking for similar to you but I’m also overly concerned about the neck. Needs to have a study, slightly chunky ribbed neck. Once the neck starts to go it’s done for me.
Anyone tried Tom Asta’s cargo trousers? I’d like to but can’t justify spending 100eur on na single pair of cargos. SXhame because he sells out in 24hrs usually.
I doubt anyone has on here. Maybe try over at Slap?
Anyone got any recommendations for shorts? Not crazy baggy, not slim fit, ideally drawstring, knee length - no Nyjan thigh highs. You’d think it would easy to find some but I’m struggling.
I’ve got a pair from Folk that are really nice.
Maybe look around for previous season/on sale though, as they can get pricey.
I’m not a shorts guy tho, will only wear shorts if it’s so hot there’s no other option

Been wanting some stuff by them for ages. Heard good things. Pretty fairly priced as well

Are these like shorts versions of Polar Surf Pants?
Gramicci G Shorts are my favourite. Or Butter Equipment swim shorts.
Here’s me wearing some yesterday 
Not sure how easy to find these are going to be in the UK as they’re made by a German brand and not exactly what you’re after but more affordable than what some other people suggested:
I have 5 pairs, been wearing some of them for 3 or 4 summers now and they’re still in good condition. Scored some of them for 20 euros. Pretty good deal. Posted a camo colourway here but there’s 10 different colourways if you aren’t cool enough for camo, haha.
